Meditation concepts are explained in terms of Western psychology and in terms of the Buddhist concepts from which this style of meditation derives.

Experiencing the Dhamma by Bhikkhu Khippapanno

Experiencing the Dhamma by Bhikkhu Khippapanno is a compilation of lectures he gave at the Forest Refuge in Barre, Massachusetts in 2009 and in 2013. I helped edit the first edition and the most recent edition. It is a free Dhamma book but has been printed in a limited number of copies. It is now available as a pdf file.
